Besigye: Stop Witch-hunting PM Nabbanja for employing her daughters in her office, Her boss Museveni is worse

Ugandan opposition leader Dr Kizza Besigye has rebuked Ugandans who are criticizing Prime Minister Robinah Nabbanja for employing her biological daughters in her Leader of Government Business office.

A weekend newspaper report claimed Nabbanja had employed at least five of her relatives, including two of her biological daughters, in the office of leader of government business, whose role is to coordinate government business in Parliament.

Nabbanja’s daughter Faridah Nakasumba is a senior liaison officer in her mother’s office while Faridah’s sister Fatinah Nakasumba is an office assistant in the same office.

Name                                                               Designation                                    Relationship
Kasaana Washington Kakembo Adyeri            Principal Policy Analyst                Paternal Cousin brother to PM
Nakasumba Faridah                                   Senior Liaison Officer            Biological daughter to Nabanjja
Nakasumba Fatinah                                         Office Assistant              Biological daughter to the PM
Nakanwagi Gorreti                                            Liaison Officer           Niece/Daughter to Rt. Hon. PM’s brother
Namata Sylvia                                            Liaison Officer    Sister in law/Wife to the PM’s biological brother
Alanaitwe Bright Bukyanagandi                       Senior Liaison Officer                    Relative to Rt. Hon. PM

But Besigye, a four-time presidential candidate, says Ugandans should focus their criticism on Nabbanja’s boss President Yoweri Kaguta Tibuhaburwa Museveni.

He says Museveni has employed his wife Janet Kataaha as Education and Sports Minister, his brother Gen Caleb Akandwanaho aka Salim Saleh as coordinator of Operation Wealth Creation (OWC) and his son Lt Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba as Commander Land Forces.

“It would be news if the PM and other NRM/Museveni junta leaders DO NOT employ family members and relatives!” said Besigyed.

“After the example of Mr Museveni, wife, brother, sons, daughters, grandchildren etc.; blaming Nabbanja is witch-hunt. Fish rots from the head!”
